Make your life simpler when working with layers.

If you find that this video is a bit too advanced for you, we have a number of beginner and intermediate-level tutorials that explain the concept of layers:

• Layers 101 is an excellent article from the magazine that starts from the beginning.
• If you prefer videos, Mike Rodriguez did two “beginning layers” tutorials in 2010: Introduction to Layers, Part 1 and Part 2
• Mike’s Quick Layer Tips is a nice distillation of a few techniques that even seasoned pros might find helpful.
• And, if you want to see all of our layers-related tutorials, check out the Layers tag.

If you’re wondering how to move an image from one document to another, don’t worry, we have a video on that topic as well.
